All the things Auggie Says so far...

WOw! that's one talkative bird. Where did air rat come from?
I think we should each have a list of all the things our birds say. Wouldn't that be interesting to hear all the various phrases? Maybe put the age of the bird and whether it's a CAG or TAG? That always interests me, too see if there is any talking ability based on age and TAG vs.CAG.

Don't know if you're ready for this -- Kito is a 2.5 y/o CAG -- my darling. Here's his vocabulary so far.

Hello
Hi Talon( in 6 different voices, we havwe 6 family members)

where's the birdie?
it's a nice bird
right now! ( I wonder where he gets that from....Seeing as I am the mother of 4...)
He will mimic yelling if there is any argument in the house, which in turn makes the argueing stop and laughing start!
He sings a song that I sing to him.. It's a birdie, (3x) on a perch, then it repeats 2x. to the tune of old mcdonald.


he puts alot of these together to make sentences
I'll add to this as I think of more, this is off the top of my head!

I think I forgot one -- "look at you, you have a pretty tummy". He just says everything I say to him. Every time a phone rings on t.v., he says "hello". He laughs when lots of people laugh together on t.v. He does my laugh. He does the "beep" five times like a truck backing up. It's like there is no stopping him. The things he learns quickest, of course, being a Grey, are all the things associated with doing stuff for him....his food, his shower, etc. It's a good thing I never swear in front of him -- I know he'd get it in a New York second. I think he's incredible. I've always jotted down his new stuff when he says it, then I bring my note to work and add it to his list. I'm so glad I did, because lots of stuff he doesn't say for a long time as he moves from one group of favorites to another. Then he'll drag up something he hasn't been saying for many months. He's incredible. He's also made up his own song -- Law & Order -- doh doh doh doh doh doh bogita (percussion in background) and rorrwwww rorrwwww. That's my Kito Buddy Bird Boy (as he calls himself right now). It's a Grey't world.

Sounds like Talon is on the same trail as my Kito!!!

I hope SO!! But Kito can say alot more!!! WOW!!!
